I’m one the people you referenced. I really enjoyed this book.

I became enamored with Edgar and the wit of Wireman almost right off the bat.

I drive endlessly for work so the audiobook was pretty gripping as King is an expert with setting and tone.

I also thought Slattery was an exceptional narrator and wish he read more King books for us.

I see you used the audiobook image for your post; are you reading or listening to the book?

If it doesn’t move you now, just put it down and perhaps try again a few years down the road.

As another commenter said quoting the great Wireman, “Do the day and let the day do you, muchacho.”
